  • The slimness is the entire beauty of of this handset. I used this handset for 6 months but still I love it. Even Sony itself also couldn't introduce any compareable model to this handset. Sony should re0introduce this model with the new and hitech features and this model will create its own market.

  • I have had this for 6 years. and it is still working as good as the day i bought it. Sony should give themselves a pat on the back.

I've bought it as it was used and its manual was scrapped... sh*t. :( Otherwise, I didn't ever had problem with the phone, just it's a little bit slow (especially when writing SMS-s :), and when you switch it on, it takes many time to load the phonebook .

  • my opinion is that is very nice phone,nice cover color ,very handsome and it is very easy to opperate with jog dial

  • it is a good and sturdy fone but is not compatible in way of sending or downloading ringtones or logos

  • Really good features but,its really bad that u cannot download any ringtones and Games.

  • i am a proud owner of this phone bnout i have a complain concerning the fact that it is not too loud and you need top work on the level of vibration. apart from this it is simply wonderful.

  • I have it,and it's realy good phone.

  • how can we use this in the philippines? were having a hard time trying to use our own simcard. how can we use this!please send us some instruction. where can we find a service center for mobile phones.

  • I have a J6 and i think it is an excellent phone. I Have only one bad thing to say about it! and that is you cannot change the front and back cover, I beleive that if Sony brought out a phone that could change covers they would probebly out do nokia. I have a couple of scrathes on my phones screen. It would be great to be able to change faces on my phone. Im 100% that sony is a better phone than all other makes, apart from the fact you cannot change faces.

  • Need better ringtones and also louder ringer volume.Other wise I love this phone

  • good mobile

  • I love it very much !!!

  • It's really Best! Only unwise ll doubt in such a cool phone - cant imagine smth. better for such a price :)

  • myself aniket, i am useing j6 since last five months it's a great piece, i have lost my manual, so please send me manual in pdf format. aniket

  • I Have been a nokia user from quiet some time but now i think sony J6 is some great phone .Good graphics but only thing that it lacks is too dim LCD

  • It`s a fucking shit don`t buy it!!!

  • As a Designer I love its GUI...Only week point is : Low ring tone and light Vibration.. But finally Its cool..And features are best compare to other...

  • Its a great lookin' fone,the grapics could have been a little more colorful... Its great value for money & I feel pity for the people who think that Samsung handsets are the best.... They should open their eyes & see the real good stuff. By the way can someone please send me the instruction manual of CMD J6.

  • I love my phone, but I also want to know how to download ringtones and different wallpapers

  • It is the best set.But I want to know How can I download or compose a ring tone? Is there any site to download ringtones of J6 model?

  • I purchased my sony j6 in ireland, now i cant use it in Nigeria because it is SIM locked. What do I do?

  • Its a nice phone

  • Well, got this J6 phone for my birthday. :) A very good present! One of the best I've ever had. ;) IT has really great design and a load of different features (by the way it's more improved in some features comparing to J5 model). From day to day I start liking it more and more! ;) I love it, to be honest. ;) So my word here is - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! ;) ALOHA!

  • Where is software for J6?

  • Got a damm problem :-( I'm buying phone tomorrow and i'm still not sure which will fit better j5 or j6? visual the j5 looks better for me...

  • Please send me technical information and instruction for Sony CMD - J6. Thanks!!!!

  • Please send me technical information and instruction for Sony CMD - J6 if you can !!! Thank you very much !!!

  • Great phone, very easy to use and pleasing to the eye. Light and slim with an excellent control system. SMS a walk in the park. I do want to know if anybody can help me with advice for ring tones and graphics please, look forward to hearing from you!

  • Never seen Cell phone with such gr88 feat and low price .Keep it up SONY Mobile handset of the millenium ! Keep Rocking

  • how do i get ringtones for my j6 off the internet?

  • damn cool phone!!!!

  • I'm going to buy it today.I think given its value for money, its a bargain anyday.Can't think of so many sleek features in anyother phone at this price.Good job sony...Nokia (yawn..) watch out..

  • handset is really good and slick,i wanted to know about the ringer loading facility and wallpaer loading can anyone help me?how to do it and from where to load it?

  • i was wondering, can you get the sony cmd-j6 to vibrate and be on loud at the same time? so when it rings you can hear it and it will vibrate?

  • I am very satisfied with the phone, it has most functions that you would find on a more expensive phone, for the reasonable price. very easy to use and navigate using the jog dial ,only drawback is that it dont ring and vibrate together. Otherwise a superb buy. you can obtain, downloadble graphics/ wallpaper/ ringtones and manual from: www.sony-europe.com or www.sony.co.uk

  • i just bought a sony j6 phone....it looks out of the world but i really want to know how good the phone is....if someone has /is using me could you please tell me

  • it is an amazing phone

  • there are no good bloody ring tones for the fone, except the ones u can record yourself, but they don't come out very well, if any1 nows were i can get ring tones for the sony cmd j6, please tell me, thanx

  • The piece is really nice.

  • it's sleak and slim, but it's alot harder to use than my previous nokia 3310. I don't really like the side disc selector and i wanted the vibration alert with the ringtone like the nokia. However the phone cost me �80 which is not bad and the graphics and ringtones are fab!! i still need to get to know how to use the wap thing and also get use to the small text but above all it's probably the most stylish business like phone out and is very reserved.

  • just bought a sony cmd-j6 and it looks good so far......i need ringtones

  • Please where in the internet can i find the manual for this sony j6 phone. I bought a new one and unfortunetly there was no manul

  • suberb phone, great features, great ring tones. just one thing, they say you can download ringtones....where????? any info please feel free to e-mail. great phone though.

  • its fucking great, slim, sexy and shagable

  • nice phone though they should have ascending tone ,larger life,colred displays

  • A good phone but I think they should allow you have both Vibtration and ringing on at the same time

  • What is the difference in functionality between j5 j6 && j7???

  • can i get one without money thanx byex

  • Why on earth don't Sony come out with a GPRS phone? In anycase, the J6 is already out of the date because the J7 is on its way very soon...............

  • This phone is much better than its predecessor, J5. In terms of sound quality, this phone rings louder than J5. The handsfree speaker also sounds clearer and louder. Think having a micro Sony hifi speaker in the phone. ha ha. It sounds great. The sound from the earpiece is also much more audible, clearer, and crisp. The paint coating on the phone gives it a very shiny and classy look. The buttons are also much easier to press than the J5. Overall, it's a good phone for a price like that. Comes with 500 phonebook memory. Good graphics and display. I like the Calendar the most. If you think SMS with T9 is fast, think again. Using Sony's Jog Dial with T9 is even faster. Scrolling through the large phonebook, reading an SMS, even using the calculator is definitely a breeze with a Jog Dial.
